Yan cried silently.

After a long time, she said weakly: "Thank you, Mr. Marquis, I am useless."

Zhao Ying nodded.

"You are indeed useless, and you actually asked your own son to save you."

"They rely on Du Ping'an to show off their power in the house."

"As a serious mistress, how can you be such a waste?"

"Bring on your majesty."

"Du Ping'an is not that confused. After all, he has worked with me for many years and his nature is not bad."

"Whenever something bad happens in the Marquis Mansion, others will be the first to blame you."

"You have children by your side, do you want to prevent them from marrying in the future?"

"You are Madam Hou, whom the Queen has praised personally. Apart from Your Majesty and the Queen, how can Du Ping'an dare to divorce you? I think he doesn't want to live anymore."

"Sister, who among the royal nobles with titles and titles dares to divorce his wife on his own initiative."

"The waist is straightened."

"The Empress said, How can we repay kindness with kindness?"

"They torture you like this, and you actually want to die to fulfill them. I want to build a shrine for you."

This tone is beyond disgusting.

It seems that Yan's energy is not good.

Zhao Yingdao: "You should have a good rest. I will come to see you in a few days."

"If you want to do something, leave it to the stewards in the government. If they don't do it, just kick them out."

After comforting her, Zhao Ying left.

When I came to the front yard, I saw everyone in the house.

"As servants in charge of the Marquis Mansion, you actually leave your mistress with no one to serve you. None of us want to live anymore."

"Once the mistress dies and the queen is blamed, none of you will survive."

"You actually indulged the guests in the house and forced the mistress to fall into the well. Du Ping'an, I really underestimate you."

"She has been almost a widow for many years, and she brought her two children to live in a lowly position in front of your mother and brother and sister-in-law. What you owe the most is not your mother and brother and sister-in-law, but your wife and children."

"You fought bravely on the battlefield for me, Dazhao."

"Even more so, your mother gave you up as the eldest son among her two sons."

"What do you owe them?"

"Don't you give them the annual military pay?"

"Didn't my wife get tortured by them?"

"Or are your children not being bullied by them?"

"How come you have become a weakling and a piece of trash now that you have killed one person after another on the battlefield? I really underestimated you."

"Don't they think you owe them?"

"It doesn't matter, just divide the family."

"He is the male of the family and has two sons. He will definitely be indispensable for the next generation."

"Just in time, I will lead the troops on an expedition in a while, so I will take him along with me."

"I want to see how capable he is. He dares to humiliate the family members of our Dazhao soldiers until they commit suicide in a well."

"Damn it, we are bleeding and killing the enemy on the front line, and you are bullying our soldiers' wives in the back. You are so damn brave."

"Du Ping'an, either separate the family and move them back to their place of origin, or I will go find Bai Heng and force them to commit suicide. According to my Dazhao Law, I will punish them as they should."

"Don't think that just because you are the Marquis, you dare to do whatever you want in Kyoto."

"There is still a seventh-grade official in front of the prime minister's door. You are an empty-handed marquis, but you are nothing like a green onion."

These harsh words turned serious.

Not to mention Du Pingshun and his wife, even Du's mother was so frightened that she was shaking like chaff.

At this time, their intestines were filled with regret.

How come you were blinded by that little money?

It's all over now.

Now that Zhao Ying is gone, Du Ping'an can handle the next thing.

**

A few days later, Mrs. Yan came to the door with a thank you gift. "Thank you, sister." Yan's spirit was still a little bad, but at least her eyes showed joy.

Zhao Ying invited people into the main hall and sat down.

"I heard that people were moved back to their place of origin?"

Yan nodded with a smile, "Yes, I didn't make any fuss. I went back obediently. I said I would send twenty taels of silver there every year."

"That's enough." Zhao Ying said: "Twenty taels, an average person can spend two years with a little extravagance."

Yan thought so too.

Now the house is quiet.

The relationship between the couple has always been good, the son is studying hard, and the daughter is naturally not bad either.

Without those troublemakers, she recovered quickly.

"After getting married, I will go on an expedition, and I will continue to trouble my sister-in-law to stay in the capital."

There is nothing we can do about this.

Yan nodded, "Don't worry, sister, we all understand."

Among those who were granted the title of marquis, six of them were from ordinary people.

These Madam Hou, who have risen to the top in one step, have no background and are illiterate. Naturally, they are incomparable to the ladies of noble families with many years of experience.

In private, he also has his own small circle.

Zhao Ying also had an ordinary background, but no one in Kyoto dared to look down upon her.

She is not only the Marquis, but also the current vanguard deputy general, a third-rank official, and at the same time, she is also the Queen's personal soldier.

Even the palace gate couldn't stop her.

She has the Queen's token and can come and go freely.

This trust can be said to be unique.

However, Yan is also very satisfied with the current situation.

The Hou Mansion is not big, but the living conditions are countless times better than before.

There are not many servants in the mansion, only seven or eight people in total.

There were two cooks, and the rest were with the four masters.

A steward, a mother-in-law, two boys, and two girls.

The annual salary is eight hundred taels, which is enough for the family.

They are not just masters waiting to be served, they also do some work at home.

After working for many years, I suddenly had no work to do, and my body and bones refused to respond.

Ordinary people are willing to work in such a mansion.

A newly wealthy family doesn't have so many rules in the house.

After working for a long time, I became an old man in the house, and my face was a little thin. The master would not shout and kill at will.

The old lady of Pingyuan Hou Mansion and the eldest uncle's family are gone. These servants are the happiest.

God knows how approachable Mrs. Hou is, but those few people put on airs.

I don't have any rules myself, but I have to follow the rules everywhere.

"That's right, sister-in-law."

Zhao Ying suddenly said: "We are all ordinary people who have gained power, and we don't have much wealth at home. When I get married, you and Du Ping'an don't even think about bringing anything valuable with you."

"We have to take care of our own lives first before we can think about anything else, understand?"

"There's no need to pretend to be fat."

Yan was still thinking about this before.

Hearing Zhao Ying's words, my heart felt warm.

"My sister is laughing. My husband and I discussed this matter before."

"Sister-in-law, I don't have any other skills. I am good at embroidery, so I want to make two pairs of thicker shoes for my sister..."

At this point, Yan blushed in embarrassment, "I can't take it."

"Why can't you come up with it? For me, this is the most appropriate wedding gift."

Zhao Ying held her hand and said: "Sister-in-law, you also know that I am restless. The shoes on my feet are extremely worn. The key is that I can't hold the embroidery needle. With my sister-in-law here, I can rest assured. .”
